I just realized the basket I made has a couple washers covered with zinc, should I worry about this or just burn them real well before I use the basket in the smoker?
Sorry about posting this in a second section, I should have posted my question in here.
How many 12-15 hour cooks will one rick of wood last if I cook at 230 degrees on a medium sized offset smoker?
Running at a temp of 230* on a offset 900 square inch cooker how many smokes can you get out a rick? Two...three? I'm curious cause I am getting a rick and I've never brought that much home before.
I am seasoning my new offset and I am using only splits for the first time. They are seasoned splits and I ran my weed burner for about 20 minutes until It started to flame so I left it alone for about 10 minutes then added the split you see on top and it won't stay flaming. I had the vent open...
I have acquired a large amount of cherry and hickory and I have always used charcoal with chunks before so I will be trying to use only logs on my next smoke. I've read that people get a good base of charcoal going and then they start adding splits so what I want to know is how many splits at a...
My neighbor has a dead plum tree standing in his yard and said he's share it if I help take it down. What does plum taste like on meat and how big should we make our splits?

Has anyone used a sheet pan to make a drop in convection plate?? I found an 18 x 26 inch 12 gauge aluminum sheet pan that will fit nicely in my new offset Any advice with this piece of metal?
I'm not at all thrilled about paying shipping for my next pit and I want a better quality pit. These backyard smokers look really solid and I'm just waiting on a price quote for a medium sized pit like around 20x36.
The builder is marshallgrills.
EDIT: So I guess when I get a price list I'll...
Here is the question I asked in the wood section.. I guess I'll post it in this section as well, maybe most people use charcoal in their Horizons.
I'm considering getting a Horizon smoker so I went to my local Bass Pro Shop to check it out in person and I'm really shocked to see the gaps on...
I'm considering getting a Horizon smoker so I went to my local Bass Pro Shop to check it out in person and I'm really shocked to see the gaps on the side fire box door. Did your smoker come with gaps in the side door or is this just a bad floor model? I don't want to spend that kind of money on...
I seen last night on BBQ Pitmasters they were tossing the meat onto grates that were not cleaned and still had chunks from previous smokes. Are there any concerns about getting sick by not cleaning the grates from chunks of food sitting for days or weeks?
I always buy butts at Sam's club until this smoke. I noticed when we would by boneless chicken breasts from Sam's that they were huge and when they cooked they released more than normal water. It made me wonder if the meat from Sam's and Walmart was being pumped up with water. My butts I get...
I live in Knoxville TN which is home to Pilot travel Centers and I made a delivery to one of their truck garages where they work on Pilot tanker trucks and this was in a shop bay. Tractor trailer with nothing but smoker boxes and hot wells. Guy said it cost 90 grand
Got a rack ready to rock and roll for a small rib treat this afternoon since nobody in my my family like ribs and now it's time to build my fire.... Wait where did my two bags of charcoal go and my smoker!!!!!! My wife decided without telling me, to lend my UDS and bags of charcoal to her...
What size guru fan do I need for a UDS that has a 3 ft piece of pipe coming up with the ball valve on top? It recommends a pit viper 10 but that is for UDS without the extra pipe. Should I get the pit viper 25 or will the 10 push enough air down the pipe? Here's a link to a picture of drum and...
First 3 smokes were fine where temps held great but this morning I was about to walk out with the baseball bat. Nothing has changed with the way I smoked the first few times except the temp on the last 5 smokes. The 5 smokes it may have raised and dropped about 16 degrees but this morning I...
